Ingredients
  

  • 4 medium zucchinis About 1.5 pounds.
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil For added richness and flavor.
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder Provides a savory depth to the dish.
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder Enhances the overall flavor profile.
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika Adds a touch of smokiness and color.
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt Or to taste; essential for seasoning.
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper Or to taste; adds a hint of spice.
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese Optional, for extra flavor and texture.

Method
 

  1. Wash and dry the zucchinis. Cut off the ends and slice them into rounds about 1/4-inch thick.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create a seasoning blend.
  3. Add the sliced zucchini to the mixing bowl and toss well with the seasoning until evenly coated.
  4. Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 5 minutes.
  5. Place the seasoned zucchini slices in the air fryer basket in a single layer, ensuring they are not overcrowded. You may need to cook them in batches.
  6. Air fry the zucchini for about 12-15 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to ensure even cooking. Cook until the zucchini is golden brown and crispy.
  7. If using, sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the zucchini slices during the last 2 minutes of cooking for added flavor.
  8. Once finished, remove the zucchini from the air fryer and let them cool slightly before serving.
